With its narrow, cobblestone streets and grand, historic buildings, Old Montreal feels almost enchanted, more a part of Paris from a former time than Canada. Its main landmark, the City Hall, could pass for Hogwarts when eerily lit at night, while the Place Jacques Cartier is full of street performers and cafés. Take a horse-drawn carriage and clip clop around the sights, and head to the Vieux-Port for waterfront views.

Its old, brownstone townhouses have been updated with splashes of color by the fashion-conscious residents. Walk along Rue Saint-Denis, where traditional houses have been converted into stylish boutiques, selling everything from alternative fashion to vintage books. You’ll find plenty of cool cafés to sit in here and listen to the locals chit chat.

The hustling, bustling epicenter of the city teems with life 24/7. From the retail mecca of the Underground City mall to the peaceful tranquility of the Lachine Canal park, Downtown Montreal is a cultural feast on the banks of the Old Port. Tour the awe-inspiring architectural splendor of the Cathedral of Marie-Reine-du-Monde, with its golden gilded ceilings, or scream “Allez les Canadiens!” at a fast, furious Bell Centre ice hockey game.

Among museums and galleries, here you’ll find the ostentatious grandeur of the Notre-Dame Basilica. For an altogether trendier affair, hipsters and fashionistas should opt for a hotel in Montreal’s Plateau Mont Royal. Bohemian and artsy, the tone is set by relaxed shopping and café culture by day and a spirited party scene by night. Perhaps livelier still is the vibrant Latin Quarter.

It's 12 miles from the bustling center of Montreal’s Downtown, and journeys into the city center via taxi can be a little pricey, so it’s advisable to use the airport’s shuttle service instead. Taking between 45 minutes to an hour to reach the city center, the 747 service operates 24 hours a day, and makes stops at the Berri-UQAM Metro Station. From here trains can whisk you to your final destination.
